I have a lemon square, shrift. Want I should eat it and think of you?

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Please do, ita.
Okay. Gimme a sec.
So accomodating. So rub-it-inny.
Great. Looting.

Returning from a fact-finding expedition from the newspaper's Howard Avenue headquarters, a group of reporters and photographers stumbled on a parade of looters streaming from Coleman's Retail Store, located at 4001 Earhart Blvd., about two blocks away from The Times-Picayune offices.
The looters, who were men and women who appeared to be in their early teens to mid-40s, braved a steady rain and infrequent tropical storm wind gusts to tote boxes of clothing and shoes from the store. Some had garbage bags stuffed with goods. Others lugged wardrobe-sized boxes or carried them on their heads.
When her son called to give her news of Katrina’s destruction, JoAnn Senko thought he was going to tell her about the damage to the Superdome.
“I said, ‘Oh, I know why you’re upset,’” Senko said of her son, a New Orleans Saints fan. “He said, ‘No…Arabi is under water…your house is underwater.’”
shrift, I only ate the lemony part, since there was too much salt in the crust. But I thought of you the whole time.
Dumbest IMDB snippet in forever:
Tom Cruise had better watch the way he treats Mission: Impossible III co-star Michelle Monaghan - she's a secret kick-boxer. The actress admits that although she loves her high-energy passion, she's not very good. She explains, "It's so much fun, though I'm not very coordinated."
So accomodating. So rub-it-inny.
Of course, I neglected to mention that the reason I dragged myself into work today is because I'm flying to Atlanta on Thursday, and I shall spend the weekend drinking caipirinhas and encouraging Dana to lick Jamie Bamber.
Better than a lemon square, I'm just saying.
I will spend the weekend being encouraged.
Edit: And also possibly doing some drinking.
“I said, ‘Oh, I know why you’re upset,’” Senko said of her son, a New Orleans Saints fan. “He said, ‘No…Arabi is under water…your house is underwater.’”
Oy. But it looks like it's weirdly neighborhood by neighborhood in an odd patchwork, depending on where the pumps failed (9th ward) or where the levee was breached (Kenner). I don't know why Chalmette is under water though.
